I have a Selenium Python automated regression test script running on our 64bit Server on IE11, Windows Server 2008. Everytime when the test gets about half way through an error dialog appears and the test stops. The error is:
Command line server for the IEDriverServer has stopped working
The full trace is:

Anyone know why the IEDriverServer is crashing?
On our 32bit server the tests runs ok all the way to the end. Over 230 test cases. But on our 64bit server the App Crash error appears half way through.
I have set the registry DWORD value:
For IE 11 only, you will need to set a registry entry on the target computer so that the driver can maintain a connection to the instance of Internet Explorer it creates. For 32-bit Windows installations, the key you must examine in the registry editor is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BFCACHE. For 64-bit Windows installations, the key is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BFCACHE. Please note that the FEATURE_BFCACHE subkey may or may not be present, and should be created if it is not present. Important: Inside this key, create a DWORD value named iexplore.exe with the value of 0.
IEDriverServer.exe is also in my Path
And also i notice in Task Manager iexplore.exe it's memory usage is 2.95GB Is this normal? The memory seems really high. Does Selenium need over 2.95GB of memory to run the tests in IE11?
